Loads of thrust going on here. Float then thrash. What makes it all interesting is the want to rip it up plane post impact to avoid any chance of slowing down and to keep the shaft as loaded as possible. I discussed the EA thoughts with John and its not something he actively uses.
Right arm swinging is drag loading. Once his right elbow closes into his side the he actively throws the Flying Wedge through impact.
He talks of throwing the hands but means driving the right forearm and bent right wrist through impact. Again from first hand discussions.
It is different look than most patterns thats for sure.
